Kangana Ranaut is quite vocal about her views and never shies away from stating straight facts. Recently, the actress addressed the ongoing discussion about skin tone in the glamour world. She shared a picture of MahaKumbh viral girl Monalisa, who became a sensation for her appearance. Using her example, Kangana highlighted the issue of the representation of women in showbiz.
Kangana took to her Instagram Stories and shared the picture of Monalisa along with a message that read, "This young girl, Monalisa, has become an internet sensation for her natural beauty. As much as I hate people harassing her for pictures and interviews, I can't help but wonder—do we have dark, dusky Indian-toned female representation in the glamour world anymore? Are people loving young actresses the way they once loved Anu Agarwal, Kajol, Bipasha Basu, Deepika, or Rani Mukerji? Why do all actresses today look as pale as white women, even those who were darker in their younger days? Why don’t people connect with newcomers the way they do with Monalisa? Too much laser and glutathione injections?"
Monalisa came into the limelight after an influencer at the Mahakumbh Mela 2025 posted her videos and photos online. After that, people appreciated her appearance, but it created trouble for the Indore garland vendor. Recently, a group of men broke into her tent for selfies, and despite her refusal, they forced her.
